Q&A

I got myself this Q&A journal instead of a "My Life in Lists" journal. 5 years. Beginning 2012.
Will record, look back and share when I finish. What an interesting way of recording life.

desperate needs.

so in order to get my life, thoughts, doodles, ideas, ramblings and sorts organized, i'm gonna need a couple more journals (got some good ones for my bday and the holidays, but i think i want to save those as my travel journals!). i was in the process of making several a month ago until that came to a halt when an ultimate (so-far) life-altering event took place, sweetly two-weeks before christmas. that aside, ... i am in need of some journals to keep my "etceteras" separated and contained. (i believe i am turning into an OCD maniac, but maybe i am turning into a genius, baah who will be able to tell the difference??)

i really couldn't bring myself to buy those cheap and poorly bound notebooks at the 99c store only to somewhat redesign its cover, so i thought why not take a gander at Paperchase and Papersource for some goodies and see if any strike my fancy.

here are some of my faves:

i'd use this one for my design ideas, i'm very much into this specific geometric pattern at this moment.

Geo Triangle Agenzio Notebook £7.50 at Paperchase

this one looks like my daily to-do/grocery list notebook

Kraft A6 Reporters Notebook £2.25 at Paperchase

or perhaps a pack of these'll keep my life more organized? similar shape and style with different labels.
one for recipes, design ideas, aussie move organization, business ideas, daily-to-do/grocery list--

Moleskin Ruled Page pack  £6.00 at Paperchase

need i say more? (again, all because of this lack of life organization!!) ...

I Can't Sleep Journal $18.95 at Papersource
"If you can't sleep you might as well write and channel your misery into something productive. The colorful, graphic pages are filled with sleep related quotes and places to journal to help you pass the time when insomnia strikes."

this one would be my aussie-move organization notebook, thus, i am renaming it sydney/melbourne city notebook--

it's called, brussels sydney/melbourne city notebook-- £12.50 at Paperchase

because it looks like it's beautifully crafted, worthy of my ramblings--

 navy a5 ruled flexible linen journal £9.00 at Paperchase

writing thoughts down.

i'm a journal, calendar, planner-loving-somewhat-at-the-same-time-free-spirited girl, and i came across the cutest journals in anthropologie today! (click on the title/links to browse and find more info on these cuties!) --i've been making lists, and have begun crafting boxes, and soon journals of sorts for ... i have no idea, and these are great inspirations!

anthropologie is absolutely one of my new fave stores to window shop.
beautiful setting, beautiful clothes, beautiful home decor, beautiful knick-knacks and etc, but UGLY prices. (i could afford a number of items, half of which i think have appropriate pricing and the rest, well, not, but i don't want to go on how i'm trying to not buy everything that i think is beautiful and find that i have no use for it later.. yadayada)
